INNOVOVATIVE LEADERSHIP COMPONENTS OF SCHOOL ADMINISTRATORS IN THE DIGITAL AGE

Abstract

The objectives of this research article were to: 1) study Innovative Leadership Components of School Administrators in the Digital age, and 2) Check the consistency of the indicator structure model of School Administrators in the Digital age. This study was mix research method including quantitatively questionnaire stratified sampling with 280 administrators by analysis, frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, skew, and kurtosis. It was a qualitative of depth interview for specific sampling and the main informant was school administrators by connoisseurship of 7 qualified persons. In conclusion,               the content analysis of research found that indicators of educational administrators in the digital era consist of 6 components and 20 indicators such as 1.1) creativity ( = 4.32, S.D. = 0.54) including initiative, agile, flexible, and thorough, 1.2) self-directed learning ( = 4.27, S.D. = 0.60) such as needs analyzing, set learning objectives, plan learning and seek scientific resources,     1.3) teamwork ( = 4.34, S.D. = 0.58) as communication, ability and activity,       1.4) integration ( = 4.38, SD. = 0.55) including with learning process, connect relationships and new knowledge, 1.5) technology in the digital age ( = 4.42, SD. = 0.54) such as develop talent, support budget, resources, and ethics, and 1.6) learning network ( = 4.42, SD. = 0.54) including collaborative a learning with stakeholders, create learning network, reflection and learning. And 2. an affirmative component model of educational administrators in the digital age is consistent with empirical data. The statistic was Chi-square = 1.32, df = 155, p = 0.94, GFI = 0.90, AGFI = 0.87, SRMR = 0.48, RMSEA = 0.00 and CFI = 1.00 that model was suitable and acceptable.
